Chapter 184: Chapter 183 Jinpeng Reappears
"Captain!" the Bear Demon growled lowly.
"Kill!" Song Junhou was at the peak of his momentum at that moment, and when two more Winged Tigers showed up, there was every reason to reap the benefits. What puzzled him was the streak of golden light that had streaked past earlier. The aura on that golden figure was clearly not strong, not some powerful Demon Beast. The Winged Tigers behind it were clearly hunting it.
First to kill, then to talk!
The Golden Holy Fire ignited, and with a deep roar of a lion, the dazzling golden flames burst forth once again, spreading into a sea of fire that enveloped the two Seventh Stage Winged Tigers.
Feeling the presence of the golden bloodline all of a sudden, these two Seventh Stage Winged Tigers were much more vigilant than the one that had rushed out of the cave before. They were already in a battle-ready state.
A wild wind tore through the area, and two cyan tornadoes suddenly burst forth, blowing the Golden Holy Fire away from their bodies. At the same time, numerous wind blades exploded from their bodies, sweeping towards the people here.
"Hmph!" Song Junhou snorted coldly. The Golden Holy Fire instantly boiled over. Under the scorching of the Golden Holy Fire, the wind element shattered, and all the wind blades had been annihilated before they could even penetrate the golden wall of flames. At the same time, his lion\'s roar suddenly became vivid and loud.
Atop the heads of the two Seventh Stage Winged Tigers appeared faint golden silhouettes, causing their auras to plummet instantly, bloodline suppression!
The bloodline suppression that appeared in an instant had almost immediately put the two Seventh Stage Winged Tigers at a disadvantage.
The Steel-backed Ape Monster leaped forward, its long stick finding one Winged Tiger, while Song Junhou\'s body burst with golden light; with a grab into the void with his right hand, the Golden Holy Fire had already condensed into a Flame Long Knife. With a slash, the massive blade light shattered the two tornadoes, and he leaped forward to meet the other Seventh Stage Winged Tiger.
The other members of the squad were not idle either. The Shadow Sparrow Monster circled to the back of the Winged Tiger facing the Steel-backed Ape Monster for a sneak attack, while the golden chains released by the Cat Demon shared damage. The Cat Demon itself had already leaped out, targeting the same Winged Tiger as the Steel-backed Ape Monster.
The Bear Demon didn\'t make a move, instead sitting close by Pretty Girl, whose Peacock feather in hand trembled, and several Peacock feather illusions appeared out of thin air, each covering one of the Winged Tigers.
The team\'s coordination was still very tacit. Although they had just finished a battle, they were still composed when facing two Seventh Stage Winged Tigers again.
Within two minutes, Song Junhou\'s blade had severed a wing of the Winged Tiger, and the battle saber formed of the Golden Holy Fire thrust directly into its nape. Leveraging the powerful bloodline suppression, he was the first to triumph, his Eighth Stage Cultivation base was undeniably displayed.
Withdrawing the Golden Holy Fire, Song Junhou was slightly out of breath. The first Winged Tiger he killed actually took more out of him than the second. At that time, in order to vent his feelings and to prove himself in front of Pretty Girl, he had gone all out with his most powerful move. For the subsequent Seventh Stage Winged Tiger, he was much more cautious, defeating the enemy with the suppression of an Eighth Stage over a Seventh Stage in regular combat.
The battle on the other side ended quickly as well. The Titan Ape Monster shattered the Winged Tiger\'s spine with a stick, and several team members rushed up and killed it.
"Captain, our luck isn\'t bad, huh! Looks like we can all head back now, right?"
As they cleaned up the bodies of the two Seventh Stage Winged Tigers, most of the members of the Beauty and Beast Squad were quite excited. Four Seventh Stages and one Sixth Stage—coming back with a decent haul for everyone to share was guaranteed.
"Yes, not bad. Everyone has worked hard. Once we\'re done cleaning up, we\'ll retreat first. If there\'s a suitable opportunity, we\'ll come back; if we\'re not in good shape, we\'ll return to the academy." After killing two Seventh Stage Winged Tigers on his own, Song Junhou was in a great mood indeed. It really was good fortune, encountering and resolving battles one after the other, their squad\'s overall combat effectiveness had also improved a notch.
Soon, the Seventh Stage Winged Tigers were cleaned up and stored in Storage Pouches. The seven members gathered together, preparing to leave the Winged Tiger Habitat.
They had not gone far from the place of battle when a piercing bird cry once again echoed in their ears.
The bird\'s call sounds familiar! Pretty Girl\'s gaze changed in an instant.
Just as the Beauty and Beast Squad had not fully reacted, a streak of golden light had already swept past overhead.
"It\'s that bird again." The Shadow sparrow monster leapt into the air, reaching the skies in an instant. But the speed of the golden shadow was so fast that it couldn\'t even get a clear view of its adversary. Then it felt a fierce gale rushing toward it. This time, three cyan shadows charged at it simultaneously.
The immense pressure changed the expression of the Shadow sparrow monster dramatically, and it quickly descended, vanishing among the shadows of the trees.
Winged Tigers, without a doubt, Winged Tigers, and the pressure they brought was even greater than any they had faced before.
"Roar--" Three cyan figures were about to sweep across the sky. Just then, their bodies suddenly halted, and the familiar script seemed to play out once more, as three Winged Tigers fell from the sky and crashed directly into the forest.
If the last occurrence was a coincidence, and now coincidence struck again, then it wasn\'t a coincidence!
"Not good, everyone hide," Song Junhou whispered sharply.
But before they could finish hiding, a series of wind blades burst forth from the woods, heading straight towards them.
"We\'ve been discovered. Prepare for battle," Song Junhou shouted angrily. At the same time, a flash of lightning passed through his mind. What was that golden bird, really? Had it deliberately lured the Winged Tigers here?
In the jungle, the three Winged Tigers, due to their sudden stilled bodies, had their flight disrupted and crashed into the woods in a mess, now seething with rage.
Just then, a series of icy glints suddenly shot out, accelerating for a second time in mid-air before instantly piercing into their bodies.
The power of the ice needles was not enough to truly inflict severe damage on them, but the intense sting made the three Winged Tigers even more furious, charging toward the source of the cold light.
Meanwhile, on the other side, an angry lion\'s roar had already risen.
In the treetops, among the canopy, a faint white glow enveloped the area. Within Du Bai\'s vertical eye, white light surged, with Luck\'s blessing.
This wasn\'t his ultimate good luck charm, but maintaining a certain level of luck was still achievable. And this bit of luck just happened to prevent them from being discovered by the three raging Winged Tigers.
The ice needles were naturally Wu Bingji\'s creation. They were used to attract the Winged Tigers that had charged into the forest, to find their direction, and the Winged Tigers\' fall from the sky was of course due to the Time Variation Seal.
Even for Seventh or Eighth Stage Demon Beasts, a sudden freeze in their bodies during high-speed flight, just for a moment, was enough to destroy their flying rhythm. The faster their speed, the less control they had over their bodies, and the result was predictable. If it weren\'t for the robust bodies of the Demon Beasts, they might have died from the fall.
At this moment, the three people atop the canopy were holding their breath, maintaining silence.
The strength of the Beauty and Beast Squad was evident to them from afar, especially to Du Bai, who relayed every detail of the battlefield with his excellent vision.
Just encountering a single Winged Tiger had nearly cost them their lives last time, while the Beauty and Beast Squad had quickly slain five Winged Tigers, making the difference in strength between both squads quite apparent.
Xiao Tang\'s plan was truly like dancing on the edge of a knife!
Yes, Tang San\'s cunning plan of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf was simple. It was to use Cheng Zicheng\'s Golden Winged Roc\'s high-speed flight to guide the Winged Tigers to attack the Beauty and Beast Squad. Continuously weakening them, using their hands to kill the Winged Tigers. In the end, they would play a trick and snatch away their gains.
